Both ideas sound great. I find even if I head for the lights the path that is after the side street dangerous to get too. Being on the wrong side of the road the odd car coming out of the side street and turning sharply uphill. Is it just me that path at the end , is very slippery in winter covers over in moss.A pedestrian crossing over the freeway might slow the cars down so we could cross over the freeway a bit more safely.

A bridge crossing would be the ultimate solution, however I can't see the government stumping up the dough for that. The first time I tried to get across in peak hour traffic was a scary prospect. I now don't have many worries getting across but a bridge would be a great and safest solution. I've gone down the path on the uptrack side a couple of times in the wet and found it super dangerous so I'd rather take my chances crossing traffic !!!!
